Set deep within the valleys on the far side of this mountain are the secret tropical Canutos.
–––
These are the canyons of life.
From them, the life sustaining water flows with ease down through the forests to the encompassing meadows of the Dehesa.
It all starts here; the vivacity of Saladaviciosa begins in these places of water and light.
All of this is created by the simplicity of the rains, it is the foundation of all life here on our small blue planet.
